You Mingxu bit his lower lip tightly, and a chill began to rise from the bottom of his heart.
She has always trusted Yin Feng, and he knows Yin Chen better than anyone else. For a moment, she hesitated and doubted.
However, after a moment of confusion, You Mingxu regained his courage and quickly regained his clarity of mind.
No, that's not the case.
As a criminal police officer, she should follow the logic of a criminal police officer. Regardless of whether Yin Chen did it intentionally or unintentionally, the current result is the most likely answer they have deduced based on various clues and evidence. Then she should trust her own judgment and go ahead without hesitation.
She looked around again - it was impossible for her to stop the collective action just because of Yin Feng's words, regardless of the results of the joint efforts of so many criminal police.
She had to trust the instincts of a group of detectives.
With her mind made up, she said, "Yin Feng, we must go now. I trust everyone's judgment, and I also trust my own intuition."
Yin Feng on the other end was also stunned.
There was a moment of silence between the two.
This is not the first time that the two have had different ideas.
But it was the first time that, at such a critical moment, they did not see each other and went in opposite directions.
He flatly rejected her reasoning, but she persisted and refused to waver.
Behind this radical disagreement are five lives.
"you……"
"you……"
They both spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.
You Mingxu suddenly smiled, with a bit of confidence and a bit of nonchalance: "Why don't you come over? Come with us and you'll know."
Yin Feng replied: "Ah Xu, I also believe in my intuition and judgment." As cold and arrogant as he was, he did not seem angry, but instead showed an uncompromising and steady persistence.
You Mingxu didn't try to convince him. Only the results could prove everything. While talking to Yin Feng on the phone, she ran downstairs and prepared to get in the car.
She said, "Where are you going to go then?" The police couldn't possibly allocate manpower to him now.
Yin Feng: "I have eliminated one of the four possible 'homes'. I plan to go to the next one. It is very likely to be the correct answer."
You Mingxu's expression was serious: "Be careful, if you find anything, call for support."
He hummed, and said, "You should also pay attention to safety and keep Tuya close to you." After a pause, he said, "Ash, let's make a bet?"
You Mingxu was already sitting in the speeding car, his lips curled up: "What bet?"
Yin Feng said: "Whoever catches Yin Chen first will have to agree to a condition."
You Mingxu was silent for a few seconds, thinking to himself, I was already going to agree to you, why are you doing this again? How much do you want to force me to agree by pressing my head? Do you prefer forced results? Besides, I'm very confident that I'll win this time.
"Yeah, okay."
He chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if I lose. You can ask me for anything and I will agree to it."
You Mingxu smiled silently and said, "See you later."
"See you later."
On this road, I have my persistence as a criminal policeman, and you have the persistence of a criminal mind. For the first time, we went our separate ways. Who is right and who is wrong? What is the truth? It makes the blood in my body seem to be burning.
——
As for the former residence of Yin Chen's family of three, Yin Feng had already checked the community and building number.
But when they arrived at the location of the community, they found it had been completely unrecognizable. The former residential area was demolished a few years ago and a new building was built. It looks sparsely populated with less than half of the residents living there, and the sales office is still selling the remaining units. Therefore, the information once possessed is no longer useful.
Chen Feng was embarrassed: "Teacher Yin, how do we find it now?"
Time is running out, and the five elderly people might have been drowned up to their necks in water. If we search each house one by one, we don’t know how long it will take to find them.
Yin Feng pondered for a moment and came up with an idea.
When You Mingxu called just now, he mentioned that they had screened all the properties under the names of all the people related to Yin Chen.
A stone from another mountain can be used to polish a jade.
So he called You Mingxu again: "Ah Xu."
You Mingxu on the other end of the line saw him calling again so quickly, and suddenly thought: "What happened? Or did you find something?"
Yin Feng smiled and said, "I am not as good as Ah Xu. I have nothing for now. Please help me check the real estate catalog you just selected to see if there is any..." He looked up at the name of the new community: "...houses in Fangzhu Yayuan."
You Mingxu said decisively: "Okay, I'll write back to you later."
"good."
"Be careful." She reminded again.
He said, "I know, you too, love you."
The light tone and casual confession made You Mingxu's heart feel like it was soaked by something. He had just been coldly and ruthlessly denied the important clue that he had worked so hard to get, and he felt a little blocked in his heart. She laughed silently.
Yin Feng simply sat down next to the flower bed at the entrance of the community, looking calm and very patient. Several others also sat down. They didn't care. They followed Teacher Yin and went through every place and every juncture. Yin Feng has also gotten used to it, used to this kind of lonely and quiet waiting and observation.
A few minutes later, You Mingxu called again, hesitantly: "How do you know? The sister of one of Guo Feirong's former subordinates has a house in this community. The house number is Building 5, Room 1801."
Yin Feng held the phone, listening while walking towards the community, his eyes and brows clear.
"That's why I said..." He said calmly, "The chicken farm you found, even if it really holds hostages, is not where Yin Chen is going, and it is not his real goal. Because that place has no meaning to him. And Fangzhu Yayuan is where he lived with his parents when he was young, and it is the home he most likely wants to return to. But, frankly speaking, I know nothing about those years, so I can't confirm it, but let's wait and see. Ah Xu, where have you been?"
"We're almost at the chicken farm," You Mingxu said, "I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."
After hanging up the phone, people on both ends took a deep breath and continued on their way, heading towards the same destination but in completely different directions.
Ten minutes later, You Mingxu and Xu Mengshan, along with more than 20 police officers, arrived at the small chicken farm in the suburbs.
It was just getting dark. The chicken farm was located at the foot of a mountain. It didn't cover a large area and was surrounded by a wall. It looked to be no more than a thousand square meters in total and was surrounded by some farmhouses. It was indeed a small farmhouse, just as You Mingxu had expected.
From a distance, the chicken farm was dark and seemed to be completely still.
The situation was urgent. The police did not hesitate or knock on the door. They rushed in with guns and surrounded several houses in the yard from all directions.
The ground was covered with yellow mud, rice bran could be seen scattered along the way, and there was chicken droppings everywhere, and you would easily step on them if you were not careful. There were a few messy wheel marks on the ground, but no cars were seen in the yard. As they got closer to the chicken coop, they heard the chirping of chickens, which were getting closer and closer. The sounds were like demonic sounds that continued to buzz in their ears.
But the detectives were not annoyed by this. Instead, their eyes lit up - this was exactly the same as You Mingxu's reasoning. If people sleep in this environment for a few days and nights, I am afraid that when they leave here, their ears will be buzzing, and they will think that there are chickens crowing in their ears.
It’s been confirmed everywhere!
In front of me are three neatly built cement chicken coops and a house at the back.
The police first entered the chicken coop in front.
As a result, as soon as the group of people flashed into the first room, they were shocked and several people exclaimed. You Mingxu and Xu Mengshan were outside another chicken coop preparing to enter, but when they heard the noise they hurried over.
The lights in the chicken coop were turned on, and a large group of chickens in the middle were startled and started clucking even louder. In a corner of the wall, there were two people lying there. They were two old men. There were marks of strangulation on their necks and their faces looked unusual. Without even checking for a pulse or breathing, Xu Mengshan shook his head and said, "He's been dead for a few days."
Everyone was quiet.
The police had all the detailed information about the chicken farm, and it was easy for them to identify that the elderly couple were Ah Hua's parents.
You Mingxu glanced at the old man for a few times, his expression became more solemn, and he said to a policeman: "Report the situation to Lao Ding, send more people over immediately, and we will continue searching!"
However, she suddenly realized that it was a foregone conclusion that Yin Chen would choose this chicken coop as his home. This time, was Yin Feng completely wrong?
She was very sure of the location, but something still felt wrong.
When had Yin Feng ever been so wrong? She was a little bit unbelieving.
Suppressing her doubts, she continued to lead the search quickly.
Soon, the three chicken coops in front were searched, but no traces of people or hostages were found.
They quickly arrived outside the small house at the back.
From the outside, this small house is unremarkable, with gray walls, gray roof, and it is old. There is no light inside. Moreover, it looks small from the outside and is much smaller than the warehouse in the video sent by Yin Chen.
Is it true that the hostages are not being held here? Although Yin Chen came, stayed, and killed people, the hostages were transferred? You Mingxu was sweating coldly. If this side was wrong, Yin Feng might be right. He brought three people with him...
The police were on 200% alert. A group of them lined up in a double fan shape at the door of the hut. The charging team in the middle was all armed with guns, wearing bulletproof vests and holding explosion-proof shields. You Mingxu and Xu Mengshan were also among them.
With a "bang", the door of the hut was violently slammed open. The two policemen in front stepped on empty air and almost fell down, but were caught by You Mingxu and Xu Mengshan who were quick to act. A searchlight shone directly into the hut, making the surroundings as bright as day.
Everyone also clearly heard the gurgling sound of water under their feet, and were all stunned when they saw the scene in front of them.
